Services

Villa management services

Services fall into two categories: what our own team handles directly, and what we coordinate through our network of local professionals.

Services

What we handle directly

Eight areas we manage in-house with our own team, with the same attention to detail on every visit.

What the work looks like

Four things we do every year, at the properties we look after.

  • The clean pool of an Umbrian villa, ready for the season
    The pool clean and in order before the guests arrive
  • A sloping olive grove after pruning
    The property’s olive grove, after the late-winter pruning
  • A table laid in a villa, ready for guests to arrive
    The villa prepared for check-in, the evening before
  • A lemon tree in a terracotta urn on a villa terrace
    Potted citrus, moved and protected over the winter

Routine property checks

Scheduled visits to the property to check its general condition.

  • Checking the interior spaces
  • Checking doors and windows
  • Checking water and power supply
  • Checking for leaks or anomalies
  • Checking outdoor areas
  • Checks after storms or severe weather
  • Prompt reporting of any issues
  • Photo reports when useful

Pool

Complete pool management throughout the season.

  • Seasonal opening
  • Seasonal closing
  • Routine checks
  • Maintenance coordination
  • Handling extraordinary repairs
  • Coordination with specialist companies
  • Checking the general condition of the system

You shouldn’t have to find the right technician yourself. We coordinate the work and follow the issue through to resolution.

Garden

Routine care and coordination of seasonal needs.

  • Routine maintenance
  • Pruning
  • Small tidying jobs
  • Checking the condition of plants
  • Managing seasonal needs
  • Coordinating specialist work when needed

Guest welcome

A professional, personal and discreet welcome — also available in English.

  • Welcome at the villa
  • Introduction to the property
  • Explaining how the house works
  • Attention to guests’ needs
  • Checking the villa before arrival
  • Assistance during the stay, when included
  • Attention to detail

The goal isn’t simply handing over the keys: guests should arrive and immediately feel at home.

Cleaning & linen

Managing and coordinating the cleaning of the villa.

  • Routine cleaning
  • Pre-arrival cleaning
  • Post-stay cleaning
  • Linen management
  • Quality checks
  • Preparing the villa for guests

Particular attention to quality and final checks, not just to the execution of the service.

Private driver & transfers

Travel arranged around you, with drivers who know the roads and the timings here.

  • Private driver on request
  • Transfers to and from airports and stations
  • Private tours and excursions around the area
  • Trips out to dinners, wineries and events
  • Vehicles sized to the number of guests

We agree the timings with the driver ourselves: guests simply come downstairs and find the car waiting at the villa.

Cooking & private chef

Private dining services on request.

  • Private chef at the villa
  • Cooking classes
  • Food experiences
  • Organising private lunches and dinners
  • Coordinating the service

We can also propose experiences tied to the local area and to Umbrian cuisine.

Baby sitter

Childcare at the villa, on request, with people we know and trust.

  • Baby sitter on request, even for just a few hours
  • Vetted people we know personally
  • Available in Italian and English
  • Cover while parents are out for dinner or an excursion

We arrange the service around the children’s ages and the family’s needs.

Our network

When a specialist is needed, we take care of it.

Not every job can be handled by our team directly. That’s why we’ve built a network of selected local professionals and businesses.

Some of the trades we work with

  • Plumbers
  • Electricians
  • Heating & air conditioning technicians
  • Pool technicians
  • Locksmiths
  • Carpenters
  • Painters
  • Gardeners & arborists
  • Roofing specialists
  • Pest control
  • Gate & home automation
  • Olive harvest & land management

and many more, depending on what the property needs.

We don’t just call a technician. We follow the problem through, coordinate the work, and keep you informed until it is resolved.

Let’s talk about your villa.

Every property has different needs. Tell us about yours: we’ll put together a tailored proposal and reply to you personally.
